WEI. known business man in one a
our large cit es once remarked 10 a
friend with whom he was talking: ~
am well acquainted with thousands OF
the people in this city, but there is one
little fel ow, member of my family,
with whom l am not acquainted. =
What a multitude of fathers. busy in
the counting room. in the workshop,
and in the numerous avocations OF
business life, could repeat the
same thing, and tell the truth They
know and can estimate the men with
whom they deal; they know their habits
of life aud the characters they bear in
the business and social world, but
know very little indeed of the boys and
girls growing up in the homes over
which they are nominally the head.
They regard their duty performed
when coed food. suitable clothing, and
the means for an education have been
provided, but give no heed to the high
and exalted duties due from the parent
10 the chi d. These busy business men
neither know nor understand their bows,
and plead as an excuse, il perc ancc
an accusing conscience reminds them
of neglected duties, that they
are too much engroSSed with
the annoying business OF every day life.
and have no time TO bother with In
children" These men hear rumors of
the wild escapadeS of their bows, but
console themselves with the thought
that "boys will be boys" and "they
must be allowed To SOW their wild
oats, utterly ignoring natures mex
orable law that whatsoever man soeth
that shall he also reap" and if wild
oats be sown the harvest must be an
abundant return Of the same. Saws a

where, after the best efforts of fathers
and mothers to instil into the mind of
the child principles OF honor and integ-
rity, which shall be strong bulwark
against the tempter's power, the boy or
girl has gone wrong. and brought

erting a pure, wholesome home influ-
ence, demanding obedience. compelling
reverence. and inviting love. will rear
a band of children ready for the honest
and hopeful duties OF liIe. The hope of
our nation, the perpetuity of all that is
grand and good, is not in the commerce
or the navy or the size OF the standing
army, but in the loyalty and manhood
and womanhood that every year ema-
nate from the homes of the land.

1t is the duty of every person who has
used Boschee's German Syrup to let its
wonderful qualities be known to their
friends in curing Consumption, severe
Coughs, Group, Asthma, Pneumonia, and
in fact all throat and lung diseases. No
person can use it without immediate re-
lief. Three doses will relieve any case,
and we consider it the duty ot all drug
gists to recommend it to the poor, dying
consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as
so, 900 dozen bottles were sold last year,
and no one case where it failed was re-
ported. Such a medicine as the German
Syrup cannot be too widely known. Ask
your druggist about it. Sample bottles

The Slavonic novelist, NJ. Sachor-
Masoch, has recently given an interesting
lecture to a Paris audience on the Jewish
scots in Galicia, in the course of which he
described the Karaites, who acknowledge
only the first book of Moses as their re-
ligious guide. The Karaites, said the
eminent Jewish author, are the Jansen.
ties of Judaism. They base their beliefs
on the love of the divine; they are virtu-
Gus for virtues sake. Where reason and
revelation agree, they say, we accept them
us two excellent things, but where they
disagree We must hold with revelation, for
If reason had been sufficient revelations
would have been s%uperluous.
TIT Karaites consider that it is not al
lowed to discuss the fundamental basis
of revelation. Another of their precepts
is: ''1f you annot do that which you
would like to do you must be willing to
do what you can" The life of the Kara
ties is very virtuous; they pray in He
brew, with bent heads. In the east they
never light u fire, and in Galicia, where
the climate is more rigorous, they let
Christians light it for them. The sect
numbers about 40, 900 in Galicia. One pc
cnliarity by which they are distinguished
from all other Jews is that they consider
that commerce in goods which they them
selves have not produced to be illicit, for
which reason they are nearly all agricul-
turists or stewards. Until lately they
were exempt from military service, but at
present they are employed In the ambu-
lances. NJ. Sacher-Masoch states, on the
authority of n historian, that nc Karaite
has been condemned in any Law court in
Poland for the last four centuries Pail

came away from the great city with
the feeling that this most complex pro-
duct of civilization was nowhere else de-
veloped in such perfection. The octo-
genarian Londoness has been in society
let us say the highest s~ociety-all her
days. She is as tough as an old macaw,
or she would not have lasted so long. She
has seen and talked with all the celebri-
ties of three generations, all the beauties
of at least half a dozen decades. Her
wits have heen kept bright by constant
use, and as she is free of speech it re-
quires some courage to face her. Yet
nobody can be more agreeable, even to
young persons, than one of these precious
old dowagers. A great beauty is almost
certainly thinking how she looks when
one is talking with her; an authoress is
waiting to have n praise her book; but
a grand old lady, who loves London So
ciety, who lives in it, who understands
young people and all sorts of people, with
her high colored recollections of the past
and her grand maternal interests in the
new generation, is the best of compan-
ions, especially over q cup of tea just
strong enough to stir up her talking
ganglions. - DIR. Holmes in Atlantic
Monthly.

DIR. Talmage told me the other day that
he never suffered SO much from the prop
rieties as once when he ought to have
risen to make the opening prayer of a
service, but could not do it on account of
an o%verpowering desire to laugh. He was
in n country church sitting alone on n
little platform waiting for the minute
when he should begin and gravely prepar-
ing his mind, when the door opened and a
gentleman and two ladies entered. They
were city people and they wanted that
tact known. The ladies were very ex-
pensively dressed, but the man was a
curiosity. He vas appareled with the
care of n debutante at a White House ball.
His eyebrows and mustache were dyed
jet black, and his cheeks showed traces of
powder and paint, while his shape suggested
stays. He strutted to a seat with the air
of n peacock on parade.
The ladies sat down and their escort
fourished in after them and dropped him
self between them on a bench. Tho bench
broke. Then a stirring scene vas enacted.
The gentleman had fallen through to the
floor and was caught between the splint-
cred ends of the seat. He wriggled help
lessly and lost his eyeglasses and cane and
hat. The look Of misery and fright on his
face succeeding the proud dignity that
had previously sat there was too much
for DR.. Talmage. He wanted to get out
into a ten acre field and whoop. He could
not help laughing, and had to put his
handkerchief up to his face and pretend
that he had a very bad cough.-'Rambler"
in Brooklyn Eagle.

Gen. Boulanger has instituted a search
ing inquiry into a robbery Of about a kilo-
gramme Of the new explosive melinite.
The robbery was, 1t is stated, committed
during the night Of Feb. 3 at the powder
magazine Of Sevran, where the new explo-
sive is kept in n special magazine. The
workmen employed in the manufacture Of
the melinite are subject to the ~strictest Of
rules and are carefully searched before
leaving their workshops, which, together
with the magazines, are surrounded
by a wall three meters in height.
Notwithstanding all the precautions
which have been taken, a guard
employed inside the magazine to watch
the stoves in which the powder prepared
during the day is dried at night, thought
he saw two men sinking out Of the maya
zine. Instead of running after them the
man on duty in the magazine warned the
gtard outside. The soldiers and the
gcndarmes from Livry at once beat the
country all round that magazine, in or
near which no one was discovered, but the
following morning it was perceived that
the door Of the special magazine in which
the mclinite is kept had been opened and
that about n %kilogamne of that explosive
had been purloincd. London Standard.
